Reading Group Feb 27th 2006

For our next Reading Group Frank Frößler has suggested "Genres of Organizational Communication: A Structurational Approach to Studying Communication and Media" by Joanne Yates and Wanda J. Orlikowski. Academy of Management Review 1992, 17-2.
An early paper on 'formats' of human communication in organizations as settings for action and discussion of the implications of different media on the structure of these formats.
We gather on Monday 27th at 12:30 (Lunch! Bring your own!) on the couches in one of the "Prof-Eamonn-Walshe-Break-Out-Spaces" here in the Quinn Building. Frank will introduce and moderate and help out if you have difficulty getting the reading. The reading can be obtained from our UCD Library access to Business Source Premier or ABI/INFORM Global
see the event URL for details...
P.S. This should be the ideal prelude to Wanda Orlikowski's NUDIMS seminar at 4pm later on the day "Digital Genres: Exploring PowerPoint in Organizational Discourse". See http://mis.ucd.ie/NuDIMS/seminars/NuDIMSFeb272002 for more info.
p.p.s. After discussing the reading we're invited to the Common Room for a coffee and to meet our guest.
